Starting point is 00:00:10 Hello, my dolls. Welcome back to the Busy Yet Pretty Podcast. I'm your host, Jane Haley. I am honestly so excited about this episode because I am so passionate about wellness and health and I'm just really excited. So without further ado, let's get into today's weekly review. So this week, I honestly have been really busy. I have been off routine from my busy schedule.
Starting point is 00:00:36 I think it's really good to always remember that being flexible is good because if you are not allowing flexibility into your schedule, you're not going to like your routine. You're not going to allow sporadic good moments to happen. So I think it's really good to be okay with being off routine sometimes. So I've been just picking back up from where I left off and it's felt really good. Another thing this week is I have been trying to keep my apartment clean and tidy. I always do my little pick up in the morning and pick up in the evening. but somehow my apartment will still become a mess within 24 hours.
Starting point is 00:01:13 I think it just has to do with me getting packages and me trying on different clothes. And then all of a sudden, it looks like a tornado literally hit my apartment. So that is something I've been trying to really implement is trying to be clean and tidy. So I have been doing that. Okay, guys, also this week, I want to tell you guys about the butcher's daughter. This is not sponsored. I just have to tell you how much I love. love this restaurant. I've never been to a buffet this good before. It's a very clean ingredient,
Starting point is 00:01:43 very healthy buffet in L.A. I think they have the same in New York too. I just really love it. So if you have the butcher's daughter near you, go there and try their brunch club. Okay, another weekly review is I have been trying to make more TikToks. I honestly have been doing that and it's made me really happy. I've been doing a lot of like day of my life in L.A. day of my life as a 19 year old living in L.A. And honestly, those videos are so fun to me. So if you guys want to go check that out, you can go look at my TikTok, which is very Jaden. And honestly, I have just been trying to keep up with my usual routines. I'm so excited for the new year. There is nothing more rewarding than already achieving things that's on your new year's
Starting point is 00:02:27 2023 resolution list. Like I have things on my vision board that I put the first week of January on and I already have achieved some of the things. I'm like, this is crazy. I promise you if you manifest and if you think positively and if you put the work in, you will literally manifest things so fast and easy. So trust me on that. Make your 2023 vision board and you will not regret it. I kind of lost my voice this week. I feel like my voice is kind of raspy. So I noticed that this morning. If it sounds a little off in this episode, it's because Miss Busy at Pretty has lost her voice. Okay, guys, moving on to my current obsessions. My current obsession is matra lattes.
Starting point is 00:03:09 Um, is that a surprise? No, it's really not because I love macha. But for some reason, every single time I have a macha latte, it will never get old. It just makes me so happy. It's so healthy and it just, it's so comforting. I just love macha lattes. Another current obsession is my new productivity planner and calendar. I got a new planner slash calendar.
Starting point is 00:03:33 calendar for this month. And it's by the brand intelligent change. I have it linked over my storefronts. And let me just say it's been so much easier using that than my day to day planner. Don't get me wrong. I love a good planner. But I've been using a calendar because it's easy to just want to write a ton of things on your day to day planner and actually not achieve those things and mark them off. So I have just been loving to a bullet point on my monthly planner. And it's helped me achieve more things, be more productive, and it's easier to see like what's going on for the month. So I have been loving that planner so much. Another cramp session is dry brushing.
Starting point is 00:04:13 I love a good dry brush. I have these little like dots on my legs that I sometimes get these little bumps. So I have been dry brushing and it's felt so, so nice. I love it so dearly. And I've also been following up with my dry brush with the lymphatic drainage. and I've been doing that myself at home where I have my like tool. It's like a wooden guasha. Imagine that it's a really big wooden like paddle.
Starting point is 00:04:38 And I've been giving myself a lymphatic drainage to really just drain excess water. And it's felt so nice. I have that linked over my storefront as well. This is honestly just a nightly necessity now to my routine. Another current obsession is guashaing. Right now I'm really trying to work on sculpting my face. I was doing this really religiously, I feel like. gwashing every single night last year and it's been a while since I've done it so I started
Starting point is 00:05:06 doing it every night again it honestly makes such a difference it totally just makes your face so much more sculpted and just removes excess water and can really help like depuff your face so I have just been loving to do a nice little guash at night lastly I would say my current obsession is my two-toned watch I never was a watch girl until this year where I asked for a watch for Christmas. I just asked for a little like inexpensive watch. It's about like I think $40, $50 on Amazon. It's my favorite.
Starting point is 00:05:40 It's so nice because I don't worry about it getting like ruined or anything. And it just is so, so cute. I love it. I have that linked over my storefront as well. I love it because some days I want to wear gold. And some days I feel like wearing silver. And with a two-toned watch, it's so nice because you can literally wear either gold. or silver. So I just think it's so classy. I just love a classy look. I think classy looks are just so
Starting point is 00:06:07 gorgeous. A really refreshed face and classy look. A little dainty watch just ties in perfectly with it. Okay, moving on to my goal of the week. So my goal of the week is to take my weekends off. And I know I always say this, but I really do want to take my weekends off and try to schedule really to have work just on the weekdays. But honestly, it's really weird. But I I think it's just for having a passion and a drive for what I do in my future. I actually want to work on the weekdays. So like I always end up somehow waking up and sending off emails, even though it's the weekend, just so they're ready for the weekday.
Starting point is 00:06:45 So I think it's really necessary to stray away from work on the weekend. So then you're refueling for the weekdays. So that's something that I'm trying to work on right now. Another goal of the week is to meditate. and I meditate a few days a week, but I really want to start meditating every single morning because when I do, my mind is just so at peace and it feels so clear and just so relaxed in the morning. If we go straight into work, it can totally spike our cortisol levels and cause us to be stressed out. So that's something I'm currently working on right now.
Starting point is 00:07:21 Another goal of the week is to get more house decor in my apartment because my walls are all blank right now. So I think it'd be really cute to add some decor. I have some ideas in mind and I'm really excited. So I definitely want to add something to give some character. Another goal of the week speaking back on work is to stop working after like 4 p.m. because I have a habit of working all the way until the evening or late in the night. And I really want to just shut my mind off of work from 4 p.m. because I think it's really healthy to wind down and not have work on your mind, whether you work from home, it's homework, school, work, anything. I think it's really good for everyone to have a time where you just stop and allow yourself to just have your own evening time.
Starting point is 00:08:18 Another goal of the week is to soak in the sun every morning. I have been doing this so far every morning and let me just say it's been one of my favorite things. You know what? A current obsession, actually. It just makes me feel good. And I just like to look into the sun, not directly in the sun, but around the sun, and just soak in some vitamin D. So it feels really good and it starts your day off right. It's really good for your brain and eye health also when you do that. Lastly, my goal of the week is to switch up my workouts.
Starting point is 00:08:49 I really want to make sure to switch up my workouts because it can become easy to do the same thing all the time. switching it up every day so I don't get the feeling of being burnt out. Okay guys, moving on to a self-love question to ask yourself. What is something about me that displays growth? I love that question so much because it allows you to reflect and just really acknowledge all you've done to come to where you are now. So really think about that question and journal that question. Now, a busy yet pretty success story from the Geneva group chat.
Starting point is 00:09:25 So this review is from Lola and Lola Set. How has busy yet pretty helped me? Actually, my life was a literal mess and I just knew I have to get myself together. I didn't know where or how to start, so I started looking for some podcasts to listen to. I'm not my own dream girl yet, but I'm working on it and I'm doing really, really great. My life became productive and I just feel like I'm living the best life. Thank you, Jaden. I love you.
Starting point is 00:09:51 Lola, that makes me just so happy to hear. I love how you reflected and saw your growth as well as acknowledging that there's more to improve on. So I'm just so proud of you and that just made my heart so happy. So thank you so much, Lola, for being a busy yet pretty girl. Okay, now on to the quote of the week. If the plan doesn't work, change the plan, but never changed the goal. I love that so much because it's so true. A lot of times we will start something and then have the urge to give up.
Starting point is 00:10:20 So this is your reminder. if you have a goal in one plan isn't working, try another plan because it will work out if you put your mind to it. So my challenge for you guys of the week is wake up in the morning and stay aloud. Today will be a great day. I really challenge you guys to do this because I have been doing this every single morning and just talking to myself out loud saying today will be a great day. I love my life. Look at where I've come. And honestly, it makes such a big improvement. and it just feels so rewarding and motivating. So I really recommend you guys try doing that this week.
Starting point is 00:10:56 Okay guys, now without further ado, today's episode is on health as well. Today we're going to be talking about topics such as fueling your body, meal inspiration, supplements, and so much more. And let me just say a little disclaimer. This is not medical advice. I am not a doctor. These are things that I recommend personally and do in my life myself, along with letting you guys, know there is going to be no diet promoting or talking calories in this episode. So let's get
Starting point is 00:11:26 into it my dolls. So something that really bothers me. I just want to start off saying is when models and influencers are not honest about their diet and their exercise. And referencing the word diet, I'm meaning what you eat. I'm not saying a specific diet like not eating sugar or not eating carbs. I really don't like when models and influencers are not honest about their diets and workouts because it can be so unbelievably damaging. And what I mean by that is sometimes models and influencers will just say, I eat anything, it's just genetics and they will be really slim. And I'm not saying genetics don't play a huge role.
Starting point is 00:12:06 But diet and exercise plays an even amount of role as genetics does. And by saying that it's just genetics and you can eat anything, it's portraying that, yeah, I can eat all junk food and processed and fast foods and I still look like this, which is not the case. And I think that's something that isn't talked about enough when it comes to people not being honest about their diet and exercise. Because what happens is it makes the audience then question themselves and be like, well, why can she eat anything and look the same? but if I eat anything, I will gain weight or I don't look the same.
Starting point is 00:12:43 That's why I think it's so important to be honest when talking about exercise and diet. It's so harmful to others and damaging when you aren't being truthful about your diet and exercise, which is definitely directed towards the models and influencers and people who are in the industry who are inspirations to their audience. And I'm going to be referring to, quote, clean diet throughout this episode. And personally, when I think of a clean diet, I'm meaning, No artificial colors and limiting your consumption of seed oils, refined sugar, not just eating salads 100% of the time.
Starting point is 00:13:19 That's not what I look at as a clean diet. I'm more directing towards more ingredient-wise. I eat a pretty clean diet, and I'm going to be honest with you guys with how I eat, how I exercise. Because I'm not going to go say to you, I eat so much processed foods, I eat so much fast food, and I look this way. No, I practice the 80-20 rule and I prioritize listening to my body. In order to enjoy a clean diet and to choose healthy ingredients and to like crave a clean
Starting point is 00:13:50 diet honestly, it's so important to honor your cravings. Even if your cravings are junk food or fast food, honor them because let me tell you why. Let's say you want to start having a clean diet and that's meaning eating enough amount of food and everything, but just not having like artificial colors or limiting your consumption on seed oils and refined sugar and all of that. You can't just go 100% in or it's not going to work. You're going to hate your diet. What your lifestyle is, you have to do the 80-20 rule. 80% of the time I have a clean diet, okay? 20% of the time I eat whatever I am craving otherwise. Even if that has artificial colors, even if that has refined sugar, even if it has seed oils,
Starting point is 00:14:33 I don't care what it is. I'm going to listen to my body and I'm going to eat it. And honestly, this is just my opinion. But when I think health is wealth, I think healthy is being healthy on the inside counts the most. And I'm going to tell you guys how my diet looks like. I try to lean towards very clean ingredients. I like doing things for my gut health.
Starting point is 00:14:55 I will try to stay clear of seed oils as much as I can. That's meaning like sunflower oil, canola oil, corn oil, grape seed oil. all of those type of oils. But, you know, let's say I'm absolutely craving something. I'm going to have it. Even if it has that in it, I'm going to have that. But the majority of the time, I will stay clear of that. And instead, try to pick things that have like coconut oil.
Starting point is 00:15:17 I've never been a fan of fast food personally. I know a lot of people are. I didn't really grow up on a lot of fast food. So I never craved it. It doesn't make me feel good. It doesn't have the best ingredients. And honestly, it's not very nourishing for me. But again, with that being said,
Starting point is 00:15:33 if I am craving something that is a fast food option, I will definitely go get it. Another thing that I do is I don't eat a lot of excess refined sugar. And that's, again, not to look a certain way or do something, but it makes me not feel the best when I have a lot of refined sugar. So I like to add honey to things or agave. So I, of course, if I'm craving ice cream, I'm going to go get ice cream. I don't care if I has refined sugar, I'm going to go get the ice cream. I also work out for about 45 minutes to an hour, about three to five days a week. It really depends.
Starting point is 00:16:11 It switches up depending on my schedule. But every single day, I try to get at least some activity, whether that's 15 minutes of yoga or 30 minutes on the treadmill. I try to kind of just add little bits of movement every day because it makes my body feel good and it makes me feel energized. Another thing that I do is I always make sure to take my vitamins. I find that vitamins are a huge impact on my health. I do not have any dietary needs, but I really do try to eat gluten-free and dairy-free because I have a very sensitive stomach to those. So I really try to get dairy-free and gluten-free items.
Starting point is 00:16:50 And I want you to know, this healthy lifestyle works great for me. But it may not work great for you. And honestly, whatever works great for you is your personal wellness journey and health is wealth. It's supposed to be catered to you. I'm also really consistent with a clean diet because I don't partake in traditional dieting, which is a huge factor of this where I'm not cutting out certain things. I prefer to eat certain foods, but I also don't stray away from everything. I really make it a priority to listen to my body for both cravings and for exercise.
Starting point is 00:17:23 So I eat intuitively 80-20. And honestly, the results are so rewarding, which is why I choose to have a clean diet. For instance, I have really high energy. I have a great mood. My skin is really clear. And I have no stomach pains. But those are what is really important to me is feeling good and feeling happy. That's why I think it's so important for influencers and models and people to be honest about their diet and exercise.
Starting point is 00:17:50 Because it would be damaging for me to say, I only eat fast food and I can eat anything I want. and look the same while I'm pretty slim and that just would be damaging to someone else who thinks, well, why can't I eat everything like Jaden and look the same and can cause such a healthy relationship with food and exercise when people lie about their food and diet? I think it just is so sexy to embrace your feminine energy to listening to your body and taking care of your body. Food is literally medicine and I won't preach to this so much because from someone who went from barely eating with anorexia, I literally changed my life and I feel so good when I eat and I feel so happy. I feel nourished.
Starting point is 00:18:37 I feel happy. I feel energized. I'm in a great mood. All of that is from food. Food is medicine. You have to eat. Feel yourself with nutritious foods not to look a certain way, but to feel good inside and to nourish yourself and to maintain healthy organs, a healthy brain, healthy gut. healthy heart and good energy and mood.
Starting point is 00:18:58 And that's why I think it's so important to look at food as fuel instead of looking as food as, oh, this is bad food or this is healthy food. Eat what you crave. You will see a difference when you fuel yourself with whole foods. Think of this mindset. Pay the farmer now or pay the doctor later. I love that so much because if you think about it, so many people in this world are just fueling themselves with processed foods, fast foods, and not whole nutritious food.
Starting point is 00:19:25 foods. It's damaging your insides and not allowing yourself to be the best version of yourself and have energy. Look at food as an investment for your health. Buy organic food and buy whole foods. It can literally prevent you from health issues. And trust me, I understand that whole foods and healthy foods are not always an option. I definitely know they can run pricier, which is something that not everyone can afford. But there are so many ways to affordably partake in a healthy lifestyle and some being organic produce from the farmer's market. The farmer's market is usually cheaper than the grocery stores and they will have great produce there. Another thing is, let's say if you have a Costco by you, you can buy stuff in bulk so they will have a huge
Starting point is 00:20:11 thing of strawberries. Let's say for half the price than it would be at the store. So that's another thing. If you cook at home, let's say it's too expensive to eat healthy foods out, which I completely agree on. It's so easy to go to a restaurant and just try to grab a healthy option from there rather than cooking at home. And it can be a lot more affordable to just cook at home. Another thing I really would say is purchase and don't waste food. And I used to do this quite often. I feel like where I would purchase things and just kind of let it go to waste rather than using things up. So now what I do is I always purchase food that I know I'm really going to eat. And let's say I have some scraps left in the fridge of things.
Starting point is 00:20:53 I'll try to make a recipe out of those few things. And I think that can be a really affordable way to have a healthy lifestyle. Another thing I really recommend is quinoa and rice because it comes in a big quantity and you can make a lot of it for a really good price. So I really recommend that. Something I learned myself and have been practicing this past year is intuitive eating. I used to not have hunger cues when I had anorexia, and now that I'm fully recovered from my eating disorder, I am so happy to have hunger cues,
Starting point is 00:21:26 but sometimes I'll be eating and I won't realize when I'm full or satisfied. I definitely had had unbalanced like hunger and satisfaction cues. So now when I eat, I will just eat till I'm full and satisfied, and I think that's super important to do. Also, when you eat until you're full and satisfied, that will allow you to not always be thinking of food, and thinking, what should I eat next or what snack am I going to have or just keep on snacking. If you eat full meals, that is what's going to keep you satisfied for so much longer.
Starting point is 00:21:56 It's so rewarding to care for your body and to listen to your body. And as I was saying earlier, that I try to be as much gluten-free and dairy-free as I can be as my stomach issues, I used to flex gluten-free and dairy-free too much where I'd be eating a lot of gluten and dairy and it'd really hurt my stomach and I'd just be in pain. and honestly just damaging myself for a few days. Now that I realize there's so many millions of recipes and food places that cater to dairy-free and gluten-free diets, where it's so great and you can get so many ideas to things that can make you feel good and satisfied and honestly can taste the exact same as things that have gluten and dairy.
Starting point is 00:22:34 Okay, now talking about vitamins. I love me a good vitamin talk. So these are some vitamins that I take that I absolutely love and that I have seen an impact on me. And these are all linked on my modem and my Amazon storefront. So first step is my magnesium moon juice. Let me just say magnesium is the number one vitamin I have seen an impact with. I have never had so much energy. It has a few different forms of magnesium in it.
Starting point is 00:23:03 And what I like to do is it's a powder and it's berry flavored and it's literally pink guys. When I say there is a pink drink, you know I'm going to run for it. I just love to romanticize my life. So, of course, the magnesium moon juice goes in the wine glass. And I have it every single night before bed. It just like winds me down really nicely. And it makes me wake up with the most amazing energy. Another thing is zinc.
Starting point is 00:23:29 I take zinc almost every day, especially during the winter year when everyone's sick, because it literally fights off so much cold sicknesses and everything. Whenever you feel like you're getting sick, I have been with people who I found out had the flu and that same day I took zinc. Guess what? I was okay. No sickness. I've not got sick once this entire winter and I've been with people who have been sick.
Starting point is 00:23:54 It's all because I take zinc. And the zinc brand that I take is the Garden of Life. Another one that I love is a multivitamin. I take the Ray Wellness brand one and it's so nice. I love it. I take it every morning. And another one that I absolutely am obsessed with is ritual. symbiotica plus which is a pre pro and postbiotic I love it so dearly because probiotics are so
Starting point is 00:24:19 necessary for your health and I love how it's a pre pro and postbiotic so that is definitely a necessity for my routine I could talk about my vitamin lineup for days okay last up I love a vitamin C I think vitamin C is so so good and necessary my favorite way to take vitamin C is Airwans vitamin C packs because they taste amazing. But there's so much vitamin C out there that the same flavor and of course the same effect. So I think vitamin C is really important. And along with taking vitamins, I think it's really important to have vitamins through your food. Just as important as eating enough protein, healthy fats, and carbs high in fiber.
Starting point is 00:25:01 It's so important to your health also to sleep 7 to 8 hours a night. I used to run off of like 5 hours of sleep. and I honestly was doing fine, but I would just not feel great. I just wouldn't feel good. So now I make it a priority to get 70 hours of sleep. And I promise you, when you do, you will feel so much better and it's so good for your health. As you guys know, wellness is a huge part of my life. And it's really important to realize that wellness is not just nutrition and exercise.
Starting point is 00:25:33 It's physical, mental, and emotional where sleep and stress management and mindfulness all tie in and our important aspects of wellness. If you want to get the next level of wellness, CBD can help. But your average CBD oil just won't cut it.

When you need to de-stress, sleep better, or recover from an intense workout, you'll reach
Starting point is 00:26:03 for your NextEvo Naturals, capsules, gums, and topical creams. I absolutely love NextEvo's Naturals, THC-free. gummies.

Another thing that is so necessary for your health is to hydrate.
Starting point is 00:27:37 I drink water right when I wake up, right when I go to bed, and all throughout the day. Definitely hydrate. Get a simple modern tumbler. That's my favorite. On my storefront, of course. And another thing is where I feel like this is so not talked about enough. Men don't have a woman's body. So when you see these gym bros talking about you need no sleep, let me just say they don't
Starting point is 00:28:00 understand what it feels like to be in a woman's body, okay? They don't have a period. So it's really good as a woman to honor your. period and PMS cravings, okay? I know it's so normal to get PMS cravings and I am one of them. I will get hit hard with such PMS cravings and I always honor them. I think it's really good to up your calories before your period because you actually burn 100 to 300 more calories a day prior to your period when you're PMSing.
Starting point is 00:28:30 So I think it's so important to really just have fulfilling, satisfying, and nutrient-dense meals. So here are some healthy snacks that I cannot live without. So one of them is bone broth. I drink bone broth almost every morning. I love it. It's so good for your gut health and has so much protein and collagen. Another one is lupini beans. No one talks about lupini beans.
Starting point is 00:28:55 And I literally discovered them when I got a sample from Airwant and I was like, what are these? Better than chickpeas in my opinion. I am just so obsessed with them. The brand that I get is brami. and I think it's so good. Another thing is cottage cheese. Cause cheese is packed with protein. It's so good for you.
Starting point is 00:29:14 My favorite brand is the good culture. Cottage cheese. I just love it. Another one I would say is almond flour crackers. I love crackers. I'm such a girl who loves a good little snack. Almond flour crackers from Simple Mills are my favorite. Simple Mills is a really nice, clean ingredient brand.
Starting point is 00:29:33 Another one is milk milk. It's MLAK and it's the best almond milk ever. I love it as well as Elmhurst. Another one is eat two Brazil nuts a day. Eating two Brazil nuts a day, it gives you the daily amount of selenium you need for a healthy thyroid. Another one is granola. I love granola so much.
Starting point is 00:29:55 My favorite brand is purely Elizabeth. It just is so amazing. If you're looking for a nice little sweet option, I love Giselle's kitchen brownies. They are so good. I know they're not accessible everywhere. So if you do have an area where you can order or buy Giselle's brownies, buy them. They are so good.
Starting point is 00:30:15 They're packed with protein. And oh my gosh, I just love them. If you're looking for a good protein bar, my favorite one is the go macro bars. Those are so good. I love them. I honestly will heat them up too as a dessert and they're just so good. Okay, another thing that I love is sourdough bread. This made a lot different than traditional.
Starting point is 00:30:35 white bread. So I love sourdough bread for avocado toast. Another favorite is almond and peanut butter. I always love having almond butter on literally everything. I add it to my smoothie bowls. I have it to my oatmeal. I just have almond butter all the time. Try to buy the ones with only one ingredient plus salt. So if it says almonds and salt, nothing else. Because a lot of times brands will add a ton of other added things that are not necessary. So I really recommend getting a clean almond and peanut butter. Another thing that I love is Greek yogurt. I am a Greek yogurt fan.
Starting point is 00:31:14 I think it's so good, packed with protein, and just tastes amazing. I love to sweeten it with honey and agave. So, so good. Another one is matcha. I am such a macha girl. As you guys know, that is no surprise, but matcha is so good for you. So I really recommend drinking matcha over any other caffeine. And it also helps your energy have a lot throughout the day without having any crashes.
Starting point is 00:31:42 Okay, another snack I love is chomps. So chomps is a very clean, like slim gym. And they have beef, turkey, I think chicken. They have a lot of different types of meat sticks. And they are really, really good. So I recommend you go get chomps. They're almost at like any grocery store. So I just love those.
Starting point is 00:32:02 Another thing I love is Majul Dates. They are my favorite, oh my gosh, with almond butter and chocolate. It just tastes so good. So I really recommend dates. They're just the best, like, sweet little snack. And if you're trying to, like, sweeten up a smoothie or, let's say your baking dates are such a good sweetener, along with agave and honey. So regarding movement, something that I love to do personally is just do a one mile walk on the treadmill. I think it's really nice, really relaxing, and you can also run, but I just love to do a little one-mile walk because it's calm and I can go on my phone or listen to a podcast.
Starting point is 00:32:39 And sometimes I'll do a 45-minute workout, whether that's Pilates, yoga. I don't love to do really high-intensity things. I used to love a really hardcore app workout. And don't get me wrong, I love a good app workout. But I just don't prefer to do a lot of weight training or anything. And I think it's really nice because I just catered. to my own needs and I feel great. You can literally achieve your healthiest self inside and out
Starting point is 00:33:05 when you cater to your needs. Someone else may love high intensity workouts and that works perfect for them. But guess what? I love Pilates and yoga and that works perfect for me and I can tell I am my healthiest self that way. So I will love to do Pilates every day. My favorite thing to do is the Pilates class
Starting point is 00:33:24 which is a website and app that you guys can actually download yourself if you use the code Jaden Power, you can get a free month and I literally love it. I do it every single morning. They're the most fun workouts. They have Pilates, Yoga, high intensity. They have literally everything. I think yoga, breathwork, and meditation are also just as important.
Starting point is 00:33:46 So I love to incorporate that. Something I like to do is just do like a little 45 minute workout and then I will end it off with some yoga or I'll end it off with meditating because it really helps relax your body and get ready for the day or end the day. However it is, it's so important and you would literally be surprised how impactful yoga and meditating are for your health. And remember, if you do not feel like working out one day, don't feel like working out. And that's not saying don't be discipline. But I'm saying if you are unbelievably sore from a workout the other day, don't go push yourself
Starting point is 00:34:22 and overwork yourself. Let's say you're not feeling that good one day. Don't do the workout. Be kind to yourself and cater to yourself. and cater to your needs. But let's say you feel great, but you don't want to go do your workout today. Get up.
Starting point is 00:34:35 Do your workout. You'll be happy you did it afterwards. Also, being calm and not stressed out play a huge role in your health. And that's something that I learned because I would be go, go, go, go. And trust me, I love a busy lifestyle. But remember, we have to be busy yet pretty, okay? The pretty part is just being calm, soft, and dainty. So let's remember to be both busy.
Starting point is 00:34:58 yet pretty. And not being stressed out and being calm plays such a big role in both your physical health and your mental health. I literally just find it so attractive to take care of yourself. Like, I love to schedule time for me. Like I love it. I listen to my body. I intuitively eat. I just love the 80-20 rule. I just love feeding my mind, body, and soul. And you have to as well. Stop being hard on yourself. Be disciplined, but don't be hard. honor your cravings. Eat three meals a day. I always love to fuel myself with nutritious foods.
Starting point is 00:35:34 I feel great. And you have to do that as well. You can literally be your healthiest self if you begin to take care of yourself. Whenever you're able to today, I really want you to make yourself a nutritious, healthy meal. Take your vitamins. If you don't take vitamins, order your vitamins. Okay.
Starting point is 00:35:51 Do a workout. Do a 15 minute to an hour workout today. Do something to make you feel good. I promise you after you do. The results of having good energy, a healthy brain, a healthy gut, and feeling good will be the most rewarding thing you've ever experienced. So I have just found that to be so important in my health and wellness journey. So I just want to leave you with this.
Starting point is 00:36:15 You can become the best version of yourself and the healthiest version of yourself and the most well version of yourself when you listen to your body, okay? you are the most perfect person. Would you treat a perfect person awful? Would you give them awful things? Would you make them feel tired and sad and sluggish and not giving them the proper things they need? No, you would want to cater to them.
